Our Brand

We're always looking for new and exciting projects. We recently added our own LED cube kits to the website and are working on some other great new items. Our Sketch Pad has proven to be really popular. Not only is it fun to build, it's extremely useful. Keep an eye out for new products in the Hobby Components Range.

The recently added 4x4x4 LED cube kits we created have been extremely popular! We created these as through-hole kits so they suited a wider range of customers and it seems to have been a good move! Feel free to get in touch if you've built up the kit and have a customer video.

Building your own hardware is always fun especially when it's combined with the Arduino platform. For this product we decided to combine the two things to create something that's both fun and useful. The Hobby Components Sketch Pad is a kit of parts that includes a custom PCB that when soldered together creates an Arduino compatible development board including the standard Arduino headers - allowing many existing shields to work with the finished product. The kit also includes standard ICSP and serial programming headers that with the addition of an in-circuit programmer, or USB to serial adaptor you can reprogram the the ATMega328 processor with your own sketches whilst it is inserted into the main board. To make this kit suitable for even a beginner to build we specifically designed it to only include easy to solder through hole components. To add an extra layer of practicality we have also included a 14 x 5 design pad area to solder your own circuits directly onto the board.

Please note: the completed board will require a 5V power supply source.
